An Important Supreme Court Decision.
No Rain Since Last Summer.
Special to the Gazette.
SwEETwATER, TEX, Jan. ia tele
gram from Galveston was received this
evening announcing that the following
important cases, appealed from this coun-
ty, were affirmed The State eX. rel. j.
c. George VS.. J. II. Fowler, and the State
eX. rel. NJ. NJ. Galloway VS.. A. +. Roland.
These were proceedings by quo Warranto
instituted by the REALTORS or contestants
j. G.. George and NJ. NJ. Galloway, filed
before Hon. VIM. Kennedy, district Judge,
at our last term of the district court for
Nolan county, to GUST the defendants,
Fowler and Roland, out OF the offices OF
county treasurer and assessor respec-
lively, to which offices the defendants
had received certificates OF election from
the commissioners court of Nolan county.
The plaintiffs were elected at the late
election by an unQuestiOned ma j0rity of
nineteen votes in the case of George for
treasurer, and q plurality Of six votes in
the case OF Galloway for assessor. But
on account of alleged irregularities in the
returns from two precincts, the commits
sionerS' court rejected said returns, and
gave to defendants their certificates of
election. On the trial, Judge Kennedy went
into the ballot boxes and counted the
votes and gave Judgment for the plain
tiffS, from which the defendants appealed
with the above result. The decision of
the supreme court in these cases is very
important, in that the court definitely Sc
ties the question as to whether the bal
lots or other evidences of election can be
admitted to disprove the prima facia title
to office created by certificate of cleo
ton. The uncertainty of this point has
made the "quo warranto" act of 1879
practically imperative. The majority of
our people are much pleased with the
opinion.
The plaintiffs were represented by J..
B. Scarborough and H. c. Hord of this
place.
The weather is mild and very dry. No
rain has fallen since last summer.

over the cleo lion of q president to ill
Dunlap's place has not opened yet. 1t is
understood that Mr.. Macupe, chairman
of the executive committee, is willing to
let Dunlap's mantle fall on bis shoulders,
but the knowing ones say Macune will
not get there. 1t is further stated that a
greater degree of harmony than was ex-
pected is prevailing, and there is assur-
ance that the difficulties growing out of
the Cleburne "demands" and the action
of tine conference committee at Waco last
November will be satisfactorily adjusted.
Finally, it may be stated that the crowd
which met at Dallas last year and perpe-
trated coup d'etat by getting state
charter and attempting to assist in the
running Of the Alliance machine, will be
sat down upon-not roughly, but consid-
erately-yet sat down upon.
David Kemp, young Georgian about
twenty-four years old, was the last man
TO whom Gov. Ireland issued a pardon.
Kemp was in Waco this morning en- route
for Hamilton county, which is now mis-
home. He killed Sol Smith at Hamilton;
was sentenced to be hanged; attempted
to escape by leaping from the courthouse
window; got a new trial; was sent to
! Huntsville penitentiary Tor q term of
! twenty five years, two Of which had been
served when the governor pardoned him.
The eXcursionists to Austin are arriv-
! ing home by every train, wearied out
with inaugural dissipation, but very well
satisfied with the share Waco bore in the
occasion, and with well-grOunded convic-
ton that with q Waco man at the helm
the snip Of state is safe.

Master Workman Powderly's letter to

use her authority in preventing local

Victoria some three or four years ago
from Louisiana, and was employed here
for nearly two years az a carpenter. He
went from here to Goliad, where he sue
ceeded in elevating himself to the posi-
ton of contractor. He evidently had
had trouble of some kind, and it is
thought this was the cause of his emigra-

and his uatimelY end was brought about
by large dose of lsddanum.
